The Bronx - IV (Album Review)

Often, album titles can hint towards what the album is about, or can offer some ideas as to how it could differ from past works. The Bronx, however, do not follow convention. Where the likes of Billy Talent eventually broke their eponymous titling last year, we now find ourselves facing the Los Angeles punk outfit's fourth self-titled record. Regardless of giving nothing away in the title, the record feels long overdue, and - in that sense - the fact there is a record at all is enough!

Biffy Clyro - Opposites (Album Review)

Biffy Clyro - Opposites (Album Review)

I’ll start with an admission. Biffy Clyro are the band that changed my life. You wouldn’t be reading this review without them. They sparked in me a passion for music that has only grown since the day I first bought 'Infinity Land' (in the St. Albans branch of HMV in case you were interested) as an impressionable thirteen year-old. This Scottish trio not only made music that I found immeasurably appealing, they seemed like three ordinary guys who were prepared to sweat it out for long-overdue success. That’s what they did. Fast forward a few years and Biffy Clyro are the biggest guitar band in Britain, besides Muse. They have earned their success through sheer hard work and dedication to their craft. 2007’s 'Puzzle' and its follow up, 2009’s 'Only Revolutions', may have lacked a bit of the raw excitement of their early material but Biffy Clyro still had a discernible character that was all their own. Their move away from awkward post-hardcore was not selling out, as some would claim; it was just a natural progression of the band’s sound. Biffy moved into creating stadium-sized rock with a heart and a soul, whilst retaining a very real personality that continued to set them apart from lame posturers such as All Time Low and You Me at Six.

Pure Love - Anthems (Album Review)

“I’m so sick of singing about hate, it’s never gonna make a change!” These lyrics make me chuckle. Not because they’re funny. No. They make me chuckle because they’re sung by Frank Carter. And the last time I saw Frank Carter, he was at risk of shredding his vocal chords whilst screaming “Misery fucking loves me! And I love her so!” in front of an incessantly violent crowd. At 11 O’clock in the morning. He also got a circle pit going. At 11 O’clock in the morning, ladies and gentlemen. Surely you can all understand how taken aback I was when I heard him sounding, well... happy.

Boduf Songs - Burnt Up On Re-Entry (Album Review)

It’s difficult to get a firm grip on what makes Mat Sweet (the man behind Boduf Songs) tick. It would certainly seem that it’s not enough for him to merely present his feelings; he wants to make us feel with him. Such a desire has resulted in a change of musical approach for album number five. The Red House Painters-esque acoustic format previously favoured by Sweet is here ditched for a more varied palate that sees him shooting for the dense, if uncluttered, soundscape approach of Swans as well as the seamlessly contradictory arrangements of Radiohead.

Tomahawk - Oddfellows (Album Review)

There’s no point in trying, and inevitably failing, to sum up Tomahawk. Let’s just call them a supergroup, and not one of those supergroups that fall into the category just because one of their members is an ex-member of Whitesnake or something. Tomahawk are Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle), Duane Denison (The Jesus Lizard), Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle, John Zorn) and John Stanier (Helmet, Battles). All legends in their own right those guys, whether their names leap off the screen to you or not. Dunn is a new member to the fold, replacing Kevin Rutmanis (Cows, Melvins) on bass, but otherwise this is the same ensemble cast that made three delightfully intriguing records in the last decade. Never entirely one thing or the other, Tomahawk are perhaps best categorised as a plain old ‘rock’ band, but then such determination to categorise can be misleading.
